Summary

  • Angelique, known as Angel, moves from France to the United States to marry American architect, John Smith. The newlyweds set up housekeeping in Los Angeles, California. She tries her best to be a good housewife but sometimes runs into problems as she learns English and adapts to her new life and culture. In this episode Angel wants to spend more quality time with Johnny. Without thinking, he tells her his favorite sport is playing pool--which it isn't, but Angel takes him at his word and secretly begins to take lessons at a seedy pool parlor. Her teacher is Larry, a teenager at loose ends, who doesn't realize that Angel is a grown woman with a husband. He cleans himself up, gets a job, and asks her to "go steady" with him. She doesn't know how to say no, and doesn't want to discourage his new-found ambition, so she rushes home to Johnny, who has been worried about her, and a little bit jealous. When he finds out what she has been doing, he is relieved and amused. Larry shows up at their door. He greets Johnny, who he takes to be Angel's father, but he has bad news for Angel. He has found out that she is 23 years old, which is too old for him, so he breaks up with her and leaves.
